Bridging the gap: A scoping review of wet and dry lab simulation training in orthopaedic surgical education
Wet and dry labs each have unique strengths in orthopaedic training. A hybrid approach combining both, supported by standardised assessments and outcome studies, is most effective. Future efforts should aim for uniform reporting, integrating new technologies, and policy support for hybrid curricula to enhance skills and patient care.
